BCSS & UBER ANNOUNCE PARTNERSHIP FOR THE 2023-24 SCHOOL YEAR!
BC School Sports is excited to announce a game-changing partnership with Uber, a global leader in rideshare, ecommerce and food delivery technology. Uber will proudly serve as the Presenting Sponsor for the BCSS Girls and Boys Basketball Provincial Championships, our premier event of the year. Further, Uber will be recognized as the official rideshare and food delivery partner for BCSS through its newest offering in the Greater Vancouver Area—teen accounts.
Teen accounts are an Uber account for your teen with trackable trips and highly rated drivers. Designed for families on the go, teen accounts can assist busy parents who can’t always be there to pick up / drop off their teens. Parents/guardians must enable the account in order for teens to use it and safety features like live trip tracking for parents and real time notifications for parents are built into the experience.
This partnership between BC School Sports and Uber represents a significant step forward in ensuring convenient rides for young passengers while broadening access for youth to engage in sports within the vibrant Greater Vancouver community.
To celebrate this partnership between Uber and BCSS, Uber is offering the following promotion:
60% off (max $15 off per trip) for your next three rides when using the promo code BCTEENFALL23, where teens accounts on Uber are available. Terms apply.
Uber will also be hosting a webinar for coaches, athletic directors and staff to introduce Uber teen accounts and provide more information on how families and teens can use it throughout the fall sports season. Please join the webinar on Thursday, October 19th at 3:15 pm PST – details to come

Monies are only approved for inter-school participation fees for regular league play. This grant is not intended to cover any costs associated with exhibition matches, tournament play, or additional costs incurred from qualifying for championships.

La participation au sport scolaire offre des expériences enrichissantes et hautement formatives. La FASSO tient à niveler les chances dans ce domaine en offrant des subventions aux élèves qui ont de la difficulté à couvrir les frais d’inscription à une ligue sportive. Le formulaire de demande se trouve sur le site Web de la FASSO. Le formulaire est obligatoireICIpour demander une subvention cette année. Les dates limites 2023-2024 suivantes pour soumettre une candidature sont en place: Sports d’automne – 31 octobre Sports d’hiver – 31 janvier Sports de printemps – 28 avril
Information importante pour les écoles:
Il est obligatoire d’utiliser le formulaire de demande le plus récent. Le formulaire doit être rempli au complet, y compris l’information sur les frais d’inscription. Notamment, les parents doivent remplir et signer la section Situation familiale.
Le comité de sélection tiendra compte des obstacles socio-économiques auxquels la famille est confrontée. Il est donc important que les parents fournissent suffisamment de détails au sujet de leur situation financière.
La subvention maximale est de 135 $ par élève.
L’endosseur devrait être au courant de la situation financière et des besoins de l’élève, ainsi que des frais d’inscription (tant les frais généraux de participation au sport inter-scolaire que les frais liés au sport pratiqué par l’élève). Il pourrait s’agir de la direction des activités sportives ou du chef du département d’éducation physique.
Les fonds sont octroyés seulement pour couvrir les frais de participation aux ligues sportives inter-scolaires. Les coûts de participation à des matchs de démonstration ou à des tournois, ainsi que les coûts supplémentaires de qualification pour les championnats, ne sont pas admissibles.
Les fonds sont limités. L’école devrait effectuer une présélection et soumettre les demandes des élèves dont les besoins sont les plus grands.
Les demandes seront traitées selon le principe du premier arrivé, premier servi.
The 2023 Coaching Excellence Awards are happening NOW! #ThanksCoach to these 15 outstanding coaches from across #Ontario. Check our Instagram for their stories. Special thanks
@HydroOne for supporting each of our winners with a $500 spending prize for their teams! #NCW2023
For 17 years, the Ontario Coaching Excellence Awards program celebrates the dedication and commitment of exemplary individuals who inspire, innovate and share knowledge of sport with others.
The Awards recognize the importance of leadership, performance and the value of human insight which are all integral to great coaching. Coaches were recognized across Ontario at the 2023 Ontario Coaching Excellence Awards celebration on September 16.
The event marked the start of the ninth annual national Coaches Week, a celebration of the tremendous positive impact coaches have on this nation’s athletes and communities. The week is an opportunity to recognize coaches for the integral role they play by simply saying #ThanksCoach.
To celebrate National Coaches Week (September 16-24), representatives from OFSAA, the Coaches Association of Ontario (CAO), Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport (MTCS), and Hydro One were on hand to present the province’s most prestigious coaching honour, an Ontario Coaching Excellence Award.
The OFSAA School Sport Coach Award winners were selected by OFSAA based on their unique contribution to sport through continuous development. The Award does not reflect the accomplishments of a teacher-coach in any one year, but the contributions over a period of years.
The 2023 male recipient of the “Coaching Excellence Award” in the School Sport Category is Chris Finner of St. Michael Catholic High School in Kemptville, ON.
Congrats @OFSAA Male School Sport Coach winner from @CDSBEO Chris Finner! Chris finds a place for anyone who supports the team, developing students to be better athletes, teammates, mentors, & leaders. #ThanksCoach for all you do for sport in Kemptville! #NCW2023
The 2023 female recipient of the “Coaching Excellence Award” in the School Sport Category is Stacy Ganogiannis-Reid of East York Collegiate in Toronto, ON.
Whether it is winning OFSAA championships or a student improving their grades, Chris and Stacy are advocates for sport as more than just a team, but as a family.
“We are thrilled to recognize coach Chris and Stacy for their unwavering dedication and support of athlete development on and off the playing field. Our communities are strengthened by the relationships created and fostered through sport and coaches like Chris and Stacy are leaders in creating those safe, fun, and positive spaces for youth to grow,” said CAO’s Executive Director, Jeremy Cross. “Congratulations and #ThanksCoach to the recipients and for the impact on our communities.”
Congrats to Stacy Ganogiannis-Reid, our @OFSAA Female School Sport Coach Award winner! Her coaching philosophy extols the benefits of being a well-rounded multi-sport participant for the “healthy mind, healthy body , healthy social” connections. #ThanksCoach Stacy! #NCW2023
